Yaw I was in the jobs industry. There's simplyhired.com and jobster.com ... 6-9 million uniques isn't really worth the funding any of them received, I don't think. They didn't ask permission for the data any more than Google did. Scrape/index/refresh/repeat.

Some links from indeed have affiliate IDs in them, so there are definitely some partnerships involved for some of their sources.

CPM for a job site must be something really nice, at least $5. Perhaps they have around 50M pageviews per month, so that would make $250,000 / month. Maybe valuation should be about $15M? Indeed got $5M in funding, so that seems fine. Simplyhired got $17M, that does seem on the high side.
